據石油新聞2020年9月18日布魯塞爾報道，9月17日，歐洲委員會（歐委會/EC）敦促歐盟（EU）各成員國政府優先使用歐盟經濟復蘇基金來促進可再生能源、能源效率和清潔交通。

這份涉及6725億歐元(7930億美元)的歐盟經濟復蘇和回彈基金的草案是歐盟7500億歐元的下一代歐盟經濟復蘇基金的一部分。這個基金旨在在新冠肺炎疫情大流行封鎖后啟動歐盟經濟，同時支持歐盟在2050年前實現能源轉型以及實現氣候中性。

歐委會已經把投資“面向未來的清潔技術”以及開發和使用更多的可再生能源作為第一優先考慮領域。

第二個優先考慮領域是整修公共和私人建筑物，以提高能源效率。這是為了減少建筑物的能源需求，而建筑物的能源需求占歐盟天然氣需求的很大一部分。

第三個優先考慮領域是再次推廣“面向未來的清潔技術”，以加速使用可持續和可獲得的智能交通工具，以及充電站和加油站，并擴展公共交通。

還有4個優先考慮領域，包括數字基礎設施和擴大歐洲的大數據能力。

EC urges EU to spend billions on renewables, clean transport

The European Commission is urging EU national governments to prioritize using EU economic recovery fund money to promote renewables, energy efficiency and clean transport, it said Sept. 17.

The draft, Eur672.5-billion ($793 billion) EU Recovery and Resilience Facility is part of the EU's Eur750 billion NextGenerationEU economy recovery fund intended to kick-start EU economies after the pandemic lockdowns while supporting the EU's energy transition to becoming climate neutral by 2050.

The EC has put investing in "future-proof clean technologies" and developing and using more renewables as the first priority area.

The second priority area is renovating public and private buildings to improve energy efficiency. This is intended to cut energy demand in buildings, which is a large part of EU gas demand.

The third priority area is again promoting "future-proof clean technologies" to speed up using sustainable, accessible and smart transport, as well as charging and refueling stations, and extending public transport.

There are four other priority areas, including digital infrastructure and scaling up Europe's data cloud capacities.
